11. Bring a Sign to ESPN College GameDay

This isn’t specific to a team so you have some freedom when it comes to picking when to go to ESPN College GameDay, but every college football fan should see Lee Corso, Kirk Herbstreit, and the boys from ESPN’s pregame show at least once.

The ESPN flagship pregame show travels to a new destination each week to take in the best game or the best atmosphere for that given Saturday. I’d recommend going early in the season before the possibility of inclement weather can alter your plans, but make sure you get out and make sure you make a creative and humorous sign so you can get on TV.

The show has blown up in recent years and makes the old studio show they had in its infancy look like a low-budget public access show by comparison. ESPN leaves no stone unturned when it comes to their production value for GameDay and it’s one way to relive your youth and get hammered on Natural Light before you’ve had breakfast.
